The Habilitation Centre Ideal
This article examines the potential role of ‘habilitation centres’ in the Labour government’s attempts to reduce the prison population, starting with the recent recommendations of an expert panel who called for the ‘gradual replacement of most prisons with community-based habilitation centres’.

Halfway House
Halfway House draws on three and a half years of intensive ethnographic fieldwork to open a window on the little-known web of organizations governing prisoner reentry at the frontier of mass incarceration.

This mismatch between embodiment and environment can create significant problems: triggering …

The analysis situates Al Qaeda in the tradition of Islamic reform movement…
